Seized Power

Famous quotes containing the words seized and/or power:

    With a whirl of thought oppressed
    I sink from reverie to rest.
    An horrid vision seized my head,
    I saw the graves give up their dead.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    it is a power of
    strong enchantment. It
    is like the dove-
    neck animated by
    sun; it is memory’s eye;
    it’s conscientious inconsistency.
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
